Lyrics
Verse 1
I'm not ashamed of the Gospel
The power of God lives inside of me
There is salvation now for everyone
To all who believe
You are the hope to the hopeless
Shining Your light in the darkness
Breathing new life in creation
'Til all eyes can see
Chorus
By the power of Your Spirit
Mountains will shake, strongholds will break
Oh, we can feel it
As we lift You high, we come alive
We hear the sound of revival
Revival breaking out
By the power of Your Spirit
By the power of Your Spirit
Verse 2
We still believe signs and wonders
And miracles happen in the busy streets
And there is new life for the nation
Yeah, we still believe
And we are the hope to the hopeless
We're shining our light in the darkness
And this is the Church declaration
We are set free
Chorus (Repeat)
Interlude
Come on, let's declare this together today, we sing
Bridge (Repeat x2)
God is alive in me
Holy Spirit inside of me
All the authority
In Jesus' name
Chorus (Repeat)
Outro
Yeah, woo

Meaning & Inspiration
"Power of Your Spirit" opens with a direct declaration of confidence, refusing embarrassment over the Gospel and describing God's power as an internal, present reality rather than a distant hope. Its first verse pairs that confidence with mission, describing salvation as available now to everyone who believes.
The chorus attributes dramatic effects to the Spirit's power specifically, mountains shaking and strongholds breaking, language associating spiritual renewal with physical, unstoppable force. A second verse extends that confidence corporately, describing continued belief in signs, wonders, and miracles happening in ordinary public spaces rather than only historical accounts.
The bridge shifts to personal testimony, declaring God alive within the singer and claiming authority specifically in Jesus's name. Rooted in contemporary charismatic worship, the song functions as a corporate declaration of revival, repeating its central claim about the Spirit's power to connect present church life with continued belief in dramatic, visible spiritual activity.
